NOTE: this is the function you might want to use as a starting point once you want to
average/extrapolate the line segments you detect to map out the full
extent of the lane (going from the result shown in raw-lines-example.mp4

Think about things like separating line segments by their
slope ((y2-y1)/(x2-x1)) to decide which segments are part of the left
line vs. the right line. Then, you can average the position of each of
the lines and extrapolate to the top and bottom of the lane.
This function draws `lines` with `color` and `thickness`.
Lines are drawn on the image inplace (mutates the image).
If you want to make the lines semi-transparent, think about combining
this function with the weighted_img() function below
